Why this trip

In the evening, when the day visitors from the cruise ships have gone, Dubrovnik becomes quiet, and the marble lanes shine in the light of the lanterns. For travellers with an occasion this very moment is the reason to visit the city overnight and not just for an afternoon. If you want to walk the city wall, do it early in the day when it is cool, and you see the red roofs and the sea. The Old Town and Lokrum Viewpoint offers a view of the old town and the island, and at sunset a boat sails along the coast.

With Dadiro Viera the catalogue lists a further point of contact for guests. The best time is May and June as well as September and October. The flight time is approx. 1.5 hrs, and entry is visa-free in the Schengen area.

The entry requirements of the FDFA (EDA) are authoritative, and you should check them before booking. That is why Dubrovnik is also suitable for a long weekend, for example for a wedding anniversary. If you take the ferry to an island, you swap bustle for calm. The trip can be prepared in a video call in a few steps once the occasion and the duration are fixed.
